Update:
Ok, I was following helpful videos on how to fly a heli and get the character into the cockpit but realized it’s harder than I thought. At first I had Bubb( using Wolverines’ slang here on) sitting in the left front seat, but upon lifting off the heli’s sent flung in a random direction at high speeds.
I turned off his collision, which instead placed him with the upper torso inside, and legs outside at the very bottom(at the root) of the fuselage.
Then at startup and lift-off I’m ejected from said spot, and as I move forward flying, is left dangling as if hoisted on a strop(helis’ rescue apparatus which ironically would actually be one of the mechanics I’ll use later on).
Additionally, each time as Bubb collides with objects(cubes etc) or the floor, the heli will suddenly stutter and glitch as it is forced to land. Again having to start-up the lift-off to resume flying.
